fore the opening. They soon tired of the
calm which prevailed and departed. ltwas
given out that Kershaw would announce
at IL O'Clock whether he would be able to
meet his claims or not. 1t is generally con-
ceded that everything depends on Ker-
shaw's action. Some members have an
idea that he will pull through, but the ma.
jority are doubtful on the subject. Scarcely
any trading is being done, and prices are
barely f1uctuating at slight fractions. There
are rumors of impending failures, but
everything awaits the announcement to be
made by Kershaw. 1n the meantime

of Kershaw to induce the directors to force
Eggleston to assume the responsibility of
Kershaw's debts. Eggleston is mill IN

WASHINGTON. June 16.-The following
letter was sent to the Secretary of War by
the President to-day in regard to the dis
position of flags captured by the Union
forces during the late war: II have to-day
considered with more care than when the
subject was orally presented to me, the
action OF your department directing letters
to be addressed to Governors of all the
States offering to return, ii
desired, to the loyal States the Union
flags captured during the war of the rebel
lion by the confederate forces and after
wards recovered by the Government
troops. and to the confederate states the
flags captured by the union forces, all of
which for many years have been packed in
boxes and stored
IN THE CELLAR OR ATTIC
OF the War Department.. l am OF the opin-
ion that the return of the flags in the man.
ner thus contemplated is not authorized
by the existing law. nor justified as an Ex-
ecutive act. l request, therefore, that no
further steps be taken in the matter except
to examine and inventory these flags and
adopt proper measures for their presenta-
ton.

called upon them for an explanation. The
